Chapter 334: The Sacred Heavens

People looked at Zhulong in shock.

I really can't believe that there is such a huge "monster" in the world.

Yes, they did not associate the real dragon in front of them, whose roar could stir up huge waves in the sea, with the Candle Dragon, but regarded it as a so-called monster because of its strange appearance.

Liu Yihan was so frightened that she was shaking all over. "Oh my god, this is so scary."

Chen Xiaoqing was also so scared that her face turned pale, but she looked at Fang Yi with eyes full of light, "With Uncle Fang here, nothing will happen to us."

Perhaps it was because of hearing the three words "Uncle Fang" that Liu Yihan's fear was significantly reduced. She nodded vigorously, "Yes, with Master Fang and his eight immortal friends here, we will definitely be fine."

Not only were they chatting, but others had the same reaction.

When everyone saw Zhulong, the scene became chaotic.

“Oh my god!”

"What a horrible monster!"

"Oh my god, I want to go home."

"Fuck, what are you afraid of? Master Fang and the other eight immortals came here ahead of time, isn't it to slay demons and monsters?"

"Yes! With Master Fang here, there is no need to be afraid of this monster."

At first, some people were so scared that they wanted to run away.

However, when someone reminded others like Chen Xiaoqing, Fang Yi was guarding here.

Suddenly, although the tens of thousands of people at the scene were frightened, the situation stabilized and there was no more chaos.

Everyone looking at Fang Yi felt an inexplicable sense of security in their hearts.

At this moment, Zhulong may have blinked.

When its eyes closed, darkness fell.

Chen Xiaoqing and others thought that Fang Yi had invisibly cracked the monster's magic and were about to cheer loudly.

Unexpectedly, Zhulong opened his eyes again, and the light once again illuminated the world.

At this moment, everyone was even more shocked.

They were all guessing what this huge monster in front of them was.

What's more, someone actually guessed it right and directly named it as Zhulong.

What is Zhulong?

The "Classic of Mountains and Seas: Great Wilderness North Classic" of the pre-Qin period records: "Beyond the northwest sea, north of the Red River, there is Zhangwei Mountain. There is a god with a human face and a snake body, red, with straight eyes and a straight carriage. When he closes his eyes, it is dark, and when he sees, it is clear. He does not eat, sleep, or rest. He is visited by wind and rain. He is Zhu Jiuyin, and he is Zhulong."

The general meaning is that outside the northwest ocean, north of the Chishui River, there is a Zhangwei Mountain. There lives a god with a human face, a snake-like body, red all over, and eyes that grow vertically. When he closes his eyes, the world becomes dark, and when he opens his eyes, the world becomes day. It doesn't eat, sleep, or breathe, but can bring wind and rain. It can illuminate the dark and mysterious place, this is the Candle Dragon.

When everyone heard this description, didn’t they think it was very similar to the monster before their eyes?

“Oh my god!”

"The real person wants to fight a god of Zhulong's level?"

"Hiss, I'm so worried about the safety of the real people and immortals."

A group of people became worried.

Who on earth today doesn’t know that Fang Yi is the patron saint of mankind?

Naturally, no one wants anything to happen to Fang Yi.

At this moment, Fang Yi's loud shout suddenly came from the sea level, "Fellow Daoists, please let your souls leave your bodies and follow me to fight this powerful enemy together!"

“Yes!”

"Respect the law!"

The eight incarnations responded one after another.

Before the words had even finished falling, Chen Xiaoqing, Liu Yihan, and the tens of thousands of people at the scene were shocked to see a foot-long "primordial spirit" appear above the heads of Fang Yi and the eight immortals.

The lights of these souls were different, and once they appeared, they rushed forward.

At the same time, the Zhulong floating in front of it also roared and shot towards that direction.

The next second, the spirits of the nine immortals and Zhulong disappeared inexplicably.

Everyone thought that Fang Yi and the eight immortals were fighting Zhulong so fast that it was invisible to the naked eye.

For a moment, the people near the beach were extremely nervous, and they all secretly cheered for Fang Yi and his eight incarnations in their hearts: You must win, Master Fang must win!

…

The scenery in front of me suddenly changed.

Fang Yi, the eight incarnations, Zhulong and his party came to a vast sea area.

In this sea area, there are seventy-two fairy islands surrounding the outer periphery, thirty-six scattered islands inside, and the four main islands in the innermost part.

In the middle of the four main islands, there is a huge mountain range that is 30,000 miles high, with a peak area of ​​9,000 miles of flat land and a length of 70,000 miles.

This sacred mountain does not float on the sea like other islands, but is suspended in the sea of ​​clouds.

There are all kinds of strange white animals everywhere!

Everywhere there are spiritual roots of heaven and earth emitting bursts of strange fragrance!

At first glance, it seems like you have arrived in fairyland.

Fang Yi, the eight incarnations of the soul, and Zhulong were suspended in the air, looking around in all directions.

He knew that this was the fairyland of Penglai.

Penglai occupies a very important position in Chinese mythology.

Its status is similar to that of Kunlun.

Even the Tang Dynasty poet Li Mu described it in his "Occassional Poem": If you don't reach Penglai, you are not an immortal.

It is easy to imagine how high a position Penglai occupies in Chinese mythology.

Fang Yi didn't have time to take a good look at it.

Suddenly, a golden light flashed beneath the sea level.

"not good!"

Fang Yi suddenly recalled that his spiritual consciousness had previously entered the Penglai Fairyland and was immediately bombarded by golden light.

If nothing unexpected happens, the golden light that suddenly flashed on the sea level just now will definitely burst out with unparalleled powerful power.

As expected.

When the golden light flashed, something seemed to be surging beneath the sea level, and inexplicable light kept flashing in the tide.

The light seemed to be rising from the bottom of the sea.

At first, it was hard to see clearly because of the sea water.

However, in just a blink of an eye, the golden light surging in the sea water became more and more intense.

In just two or three breaths, the entire sea surface covering billions of light years was covered by a layer of thick golden light.

Immediately afterwards, billions of golden lights rose up.

The terrifying power, accompanied by the rising golden light, continuously penetrated the heaven and earth from the bottom to the top!

Sensing the powerful energy impact, Fang Yi did not hesitate to hold the Gathering Immortals Flag and cover himself, his eight incarnations, and Zhulong in lotus mist.

The lotus was constantly crushed by the golden light!

The mist was also scattered by the impact!

Fortunately, whenever the lotus mist dissipated, the Gathering Immortal Flag would continuously release replenishments, so Fang Yi and the eight incarnations were not slaughtered.

The rising impact of the golden light that penetrated the sky and earth from the bottom to the top did not last long.

After about two or three blinks of an eye, the golden light slowly dissipated.

Even though Penglai Fairyland suffered such a terrifying force, it did not suffer any damage at all, as if it was protected by some magical force.

Fang Yi's mind was filled with doubts again, "Who on earth could have released such a terrifyingly powerful force in an instant?"

As soon as this thought came to mind, Zhulong sent a message: "Daoyou, if I'm not mistaken, it must be the Divine Ao!"

Divine Aurora?

Fang Yi naturally knew about this powerful beast in myths and legends.

In ancient legends, Shen'ao is a giant turtle or tortoise in the sea.

It is said that it has the shape of a turtle and a dragon body, and its body is so huge that it is unbelievable.

In mythology, the divine Ao lives in the East China Sea with Mount Tiantai on its head.

When Nuwa was repairing the sky, the sky collapsed and the earth sank, unable to support it. Empress Nuwa went to the East China Sea and cut off the limbs of the divine turtle to replace the celestial pillar to support the sky and establish the four poles.

The four limbs can serve as pillars of heaven, which shows how big this divine turtle is.

According to the Bamboo Annals, there is a mountain outside the East China Sea named Tiantai Mountain, where immortals live and it leads directly to heaven.

Mount Tiantai is located on the back of the divine turtle. Nuwa took the legs of the divine turtle and Mount Tiantai had no place to stay, so Nuwa moved it to the present Dongshan area and transformed it into Penglai, Fangzhang and Yingzhou.

In Chinese mythology and legends, the divine Ao is comparable to the Xuanwu!

After hearing Zhulong's analysis that it was this mythical beast that was causing trouble, Fang Yi became serious.

He looked towards Zhulong, "Shen Ao is comparable to Xuanwu, Zhulong, are you confident that you can win?"

Zhulong said rather arrogantly: "If I were in my prime, I could kill him easily."

After saying this, Zhulong sighed, "But now with my current strength, I am at most on par with him, maybe even a little bit worse."

What?

Although today's Zhulong is not in its prime as recorded in mythology, at least his power is comparable to that of the Yang God.

It turns out that he is only on par with the Divine Ao?

Only then did Fang Yi realize how powerful Shen Ao was.

At the same time, he frowned.

Because Fang Yi knew that if Shen Ao wanted to protect Penglai from being intruders, he could only send Zhulong to deal with it, and then he and the eight incarnations would be able to enter the sacred mountain, find the three stars of Fu, Lu and Shou, and engage in a vigorous battle.

However, Zhulong is currently the most powerful force on his side. If he is stopped by Shen'ao at the first level, then with his own strength and the strength of the eight incarnations, he may not be a match for Sanxing.

Fang Yi was caught in a dilemma, not knowing whether to let Zhulong stay or unite the eight incarnations to kill Shen Ao and then enter the sacred mountain.

There is a high possibility that the eight incarnations and Zhulong will unite to kill Shen'ao.

However, if this were to happen, the consumption on himself, the eight incarnations, and Zhulong would be enormous.

Then the problem will return to the starting point, and there will be no power to defeat the three stars of Fu, Lu and Shou.

How to choose?

Fang Yi was constantly thinking.

Zhulong was conscious again, "This divine turtle is holding up a mountain, so it can only cause us some trouble. Otherwise, if it moves, the Penglai Fairy Mountain will be shaken to pieces. We don't need to worry about it, just head straight towards the divine mountain."

Hearing this, Fang Yi was overjoyed, "You mean Shen Ao won't make things difficult for us?"

Zhulong said: "Yes."

Fang Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief and no longer cared about Shen Ao. He gave an order, "Fellow Daoists, follow me to the sacred mountain."

"I will follow the command of the deity."

"We will follow you to defeat the enemy."

The eight incarnations and Zhulong responded in unison.

Fang Yi took the lead, leading the eight incarnations and Zhulong, who turned into streams of light and flew towards him.

Just as Zhulong said, Shen'ao launched an attack and did not cause any trouble afterwards.

Soon, the ten sacred beings arrived at the outermost island.

They just wanted to sprint at top speed.

Suddenly, eight rays of light of different colors rose from the island.

Red, orange, yellow, green, purple, blue, black and white.

Sensing the powerful force impacting, Fang Yi hurriedly stopped with the eight incarnations and Zhulong, and used his spiritual power to look over.

Various magic weapons appeared in eight different lights, including gourd, banana fan, Chunyang sword, lotus, flower basket, flute, fisherman's drum and tablet.

As soon as Fang Yi saw these eight magic weapons, the images and names of eight immortals immediately popped up in his mind.

If my guess is correct, these magic weapons should be held by the Eight Immortals.

Then the identity of the immortal who blocked his way would be revealed!

That’s right, the Eight Immortals!

As soon as Fang Yi's idea came into being, the tide of the sea level began to rise.

Eight huge water columns suddenly appeared, and a sacred being stood on each of them.

Leading the group was Li Tieguai, followed by Han Zhongli with his breasts exposed, Lü Dongbin in a green Taoist robe, Zhang Guolao riding a donkey upside down, the extremely beautiful female fairy He Xiangu, Lan Caihe in a torn blue shirt, Han Xiangzi in fluttering white clothes, and Cao Guojiu in a gauze hat and a red official robe.

Fang Yi once fought with Li Tieguai and obtained an incarnation as a result.

However, the Tieguai Li among the Eight Immortals gathered in front of Fang Yi gave him a completely different feeling, he was even more powerful!

The most important thing is that although Li Tieguai is the leader of the Eight Immortals, Fang Yi can directly feel that his strength is not the strongest among the Eight Immortals.

The strongest are the two immortals Han Zhongli and Lu Dongbin, followed by Zhang Guolao, then Tieguai Li, He Xiangu and Lan Caihe. As for Han Xiangzi and Cao Guojiu, they seem to be much weaker than the others.

However, Fang Yi did not take the Eight Immortals seriously, because he could judge that his incarnation alone was capable of defeating them.

Although he judged that the Eight Immortals were much weaker than his current self, Fang Yi still bowed sincerely to Han Zhongli and Lu Dongbin.

Fang Yi bowed and said in a clear voice: "Disciple Fang Yi greets the Grandmaster and Uncle Master. I am afraid that I may offend you in the following. I hope you will forgive me."

Han Zhongli is Zhongli Quan, the master of Fang Yi's mentor Chen Pu. Lu Dongbin and Chen Pu are from the same school, and he entered the school earlier than Chen Pu. Naturally, he is Fang Yi's uncle in name.

Therefore, Fang Yi wanted to show respect.

Unfortunately, perhaps because Han Zhongli and Lu Dongbin’s powers were quite weak, when they heard Fang Yi’s greetings, they did not react like the Queen Mother of the West, the Three Pure Ones, Allah and other gods.

Fang Yi was not disappointed, he just said to the incarnation of the priest: "You hold them back, other Taoist friends, follow me and continue forward!"

The incarnation of the priest took a step forward and said, "Okay, let me meet the Eight Immortals!"

After saying this, the incarnation of the priest was filled with black and white light that instantly enveloped the Eight Immortals.

Fang Yi didn't even turn his head, and led the other seven incarnations and Zhulong to rush forward without stopping.

But before they had flown for long, a huge column of water rose again from the sea ahead, and a Dragon King with a dragon head, a human body, wings on his back, and wearing a dragon robe and a dragon crown emerged.

This Dragon King is not the Dragon King of the Four Seas, nor is he the Dragon King of the heavens or rivers, but the legendary Five Dragon Gods!

As soon as the Dragon King appeared, a terrifying aura burst out from his body.

Its strength is more terrifying than the combined power of the Eight Immortals!

Fang Yi did not stop this time, but just passed a message to his water incarnation, "Go meet the Dragon King."

The incarnation of water broke away from the main force, raised a wave thousands of feet high, and turned into countless rapids to attack the Dragon King.

Fang Yi, the remaining six incarnations and Zhulong set off again.

During this period, they encountered many obstacles from the Penglai gods.

These include Mazu, the goddess of the sea, the Six Dings and Six Jias, and the Sixty Yuan Chens.

The Six Dings, Six Jias and Sixty Yuan Chens are all Taoist guardian gods. The most important thing is that they go out together, and the momentum appears to be very mighty.

However, no matter how great the momentum was, it could not stop Fang Yi's determination to go to the sacred mountain to meet the three stars of Fu Lu Shou. He let his incarnations fight against the gods they met one by one.

In the end, all eight incarnations were sent out and engaged in a tough battle.

Only Fang Yi and Zhulong came to the foot of the sacred mountain together.

Arriving here, Fang Yi and Zhulong stopped and looked up. They had just encountered so many gods along the way, even the Six Dings and Six Jias and the Sixty Yuan Chens among the guardian gods had come out together. This made him feel that the Three Stars of Fortune, Longevity and Happiness might be more powerful than he had imagined.

Although he knew that the Three Stars of Fu Lu Shou might be so powerful that it was hard to believe, Fang Yi was still full of fighting spirit. He really wanted to see how powerful the Three Stars of Fu Lu Shou were!
